This is an open letter for Speaker John Boehner, who has been trying hard to ensure we avoid the financial cliff drop. Our conservatives in Guam have been concerned in reference to the sequestration plan, which will impact adversely for the defense posture on island. Economically, for Guam, it has been a scary lot.

Therefore, sir, I am asking you to hold the line with this administration and do not agree to any tax rate increases. No doubt, It is a trap to give the Democrats cover, as you well know, and you have done your best with your offer to raise revenues.
